Mysa, meaning 'to be cozy,' is the Swedish idea of doing what brings one a sense of comfort and joy. It often evokes a feeling of being together with friends and family in an informal, cozy setting. Please feel welcome to come and indulge in the luscious and dreamy atmosphere of Scandinavia.

As Galileo nears the end of his life, he reflects on the major milestones that defined him and his legacy – his trial for heresy, his scientific discoveries and the loss of his beloved daughter.
